Lepista is a deprecated[1] genus of mushrooms, formerly grouped in the large genus Tricholoma and more recently found to be a synonym of Clitocybe.[2] However, Clitocybe itself appears polyphyletic and may have to be split. According to the Dictionary of the Fungi (10th edition, 2008), the widespread genus contains about 50 species.[3]

Species

  • Lepista caespitosa
  • Lepista flaccida (previously Clitocybe flaccida)
  • Lepista gilva
  • Lepista glaucocana
  • Lepista inversa
  • Lepista nuda (Wood blewit)
  • Lepista saeva (Field blewit)
  • Lepista sordida
